Subject: The Halo Reach Ban Problem

So I quit 2 games because EVERYONE LEFT and the game was completely unfair. I don't leave games for just any reason. This problem has yet to be addressed and more than likely a forum mod would probably lock this thread as if this is some sort of communist forum. I found this video on youtube that talks about exactly what I mean and what other people experience. There's hardly a single game where a person doesn't leave on either team. If you don't want people to quit your games, banning them is not the way to do it and if this is in Halo 4, well count me out. I like Halo, but this is just a bit ridiculous...

What are your thought's on the matter Halo community? Please no flaming or trolling.

It should be harsher, but, really, what's 15 minutes of not playing a game with sub-standard multiplayer and campaign anyway?

I know! My problem is almost exactly like yours! I have been temporarily banned from earning credit and from matchmaking this whole past week because of server connectivity problems and then getting removed from the lobby.
It is completely unfair and unjustifiable and needs to be fixed!

I used to have a bad internet connection so I would get disconnected from at least every other game. As you can guess I would get banned quite often. At first I thought it was cool to prevent quitters, then I saw that there were no exceptions whatsoever to the rule and I realized something should be done about it.

15 minutes is a game I could have played. The point is I shouldn't be banned because the game was simply unfair. It leaves me with 2 choices, either get crapped on by a full team vs just me and perhaps 1 other person, or get banned. Everyone quits this game, all the time. If just 1 person leaves it could potentially turn the tide against the other team. I would've been a lot better if players could join and leave as they please like in CoD. It would have been a nice feature and punishing players because there was a complaint about people rage quitting is not the way to go. They should encourage people to stay by splitting up Cr earned from players that left amongst the remaining few that stayed.

I like this idea. Just give the people that leave cR for challenges and commendations, divide the game complete cR among everyone else.

Credits don't matter. I'm going to quit anyway because credits are irrelevant. Drop-in/drop-out multiplayer leads to all sorts of problems (various host migrations, changes in competition, ect.) so that's not an option for Halo. And you knew the end result of the quits, but you accepted that that was okay and quit anyway.

And, again, what's 15 minutes? Does your attention span not account for doing something else while you wait?

So I quit 2 games because EVERYONE LEFT

This is exactly why the quit ban needs to be harsher. If you want to read my full argument click me.

Wow, the crap that some people post. No wonder the government thinks that they need to control people, seems as though some need it.

Ummmm you have to quit more than once to receive the ban... amIright?

So this would allow you to quit out of a few games, that you just didn't want to play, or that have become unfair due to people dropping out.
